Born on the Fourth of July
When Daniel, one of half of the Marzoa Family dads, contacted me to help him with planning a second birthday party for their twins, Devin and Dean, a party planning match was made in heaven. We had the MOST fun planning this fun and festive birthday party brimming with star-spangled details. A classic Nantucket summer with a Pottery Barn Americana aesthetic were the inspirations behind everything from the decor choices to the menu.
When we talked about the flow and design of the party, Daniel was very clear that while design aesthetic is incredibly important to him, their guests’ enjoyment was the top imperative for the hosts. We stuck to American summer classics: a pool party with grilled burgers and hot dogs, Coca-Cola, pies, popsicles and lawn games.
A focus on good old-fashioned fun had the kids racing in potato sacks and laughing through pie eating contests. Everyone splashed in the pool and on the water slide until the sun went down, and then we pulled out the sparklers and ended the night with a s’mores board that was the stuff of childhood dreams.
